Method 3 of making DIY Felt Roses

For this felt rose DIY, cut out a long strip of felt with a rounded but flat petal and then subsequently shaped petals without cutting them out separately.

Start rolling from the straight edge petal.

When you start rolling the petals remember to pinch the bottom edge into a small pleat.Stitch in place.

Method 4 of making DIY Felt Roses

To make this rose flower, cut out petals – a lot of petals with a dome shape at the top and one semi-circle to make the bud in the center.

For this rose flower I have cut out 7 such petals – they are all different sizes with four of them slightly bigger than the rest 3.

Curl the top dome shape with your hand and some wetness.

Curl the oval-shaped petal into the center bud . Stitch in place. You can curl this over floral wire, if you want a stand up rose flower.

Place the rest of the petals, overlapping each other and stitch in place. Add the sepal and then cover the wire with green tape.
